Pantomimes (...or panto's) are a unique type of British Art, in which men play women and women play men. Panto's are adapted from popular Fairy Tales, such as:

Cinderella (...and the glass slipper)

Aladdin - from the arabian nights

Mother Goose

Jack And The Beanstalk

Robin Hood and Babes In The Wood

Dick Whittington

Snow White

Puss In Boots

Every Village, town or city has its panto. Popular actors often preform in theatres, that say panto is there biggest seller!
